Blushing Beauties

While some house finches stay through the winter, others are flying in from warmer climes for nesting season and they're enthusiastically joining the lineup at the bird feeders.

 
A few of them usually find a place to nest nearby and will visit the feeders all summer long, adding their cheerful color and voices to the back yard chorus.
 

Isn't he a handsome fellow?


Madam house finch is a little more shy, as well having a more muted wardrobe. She likes to keep to the lilac bush interior between visits to the feeding stations, but she's a cutie, too.
